• For OTC creams, use those which contain following ingredients:
  • Hydroquinone.
  • Licorice extract.
  • N-acetylglucosamine.
  • Vitamin B-3 (niacinamide)
     
• Depending on the degree to which your acne & spots are raised, you can also explore the undermentioned options:
  • Laser treatment: Rs. 5,000 to Rs. 22,000
  • Microdermabrasion: Rs. 1500 to Rs. 6000
  • Chemical peels: Rs. 1,000 to Rs. 10,000 per session.

These can be performed on people of all skin types, but if you have any other skin condition such as pigmentation/etc, then there could be complications.
The actual cost can exceed the estimated range, because of factors such as location/experience of the clinician, severity of concern, number of sessions, area covered, and value-added services provided by the clinic.
 

• For every procedure or treatment option mentioned above, discuss following things with your doctor:
  • Risks, correction course, and compensation.
  • Pre-operative measures and post-operative care.
  • Candidate eligibility criteria.
  • Impact of past/current medical issues on your overall experience and recovery.

Taking your skin tone, severity of concern and budget constraints into consideration, your dermatologist will work out the best treatment plan for you.
